To begin, I would be pleased and honored to have the opportunity to join your Allied Health Academy at Williamstown High school. The Allied Health Academy will help broaden my understanding of the medical field. My interest in the medical field was influenced by my father, who is a registered nurse. His reason for pursuing a career in the medical field was financial stability. Although financial stability is greatly important for picking any job, personally I would be ecstatic to have a job that allows me to save lives. I would use my influence and credibility as a doctor to go into poverty-stricken areas and inform people about the importance of health. Additionally, not exclusively physically health, but also emotional health because someone’s …show more content…
Most poverty- stricken people do not have cars and even if they did have enough money to ride the bus to the supermarket, the food might be too expensive. My future goal will be to have my own clinic that travels to these areas to deliver complimentary healthy foods. While in these neighborhoods, I will discuss the significance food has on the body. I will also offer interventions that people can attend to converse about different issues they face on a day to day basis and how my clinic can help them. Furthermore, the best way to stop a disease from happening is to educate people about the disease. For this reason, schools talk about all the disease caused by doing drugs. Along with talking about the diseases associated with doing drug not prescribed by a doctor, schools show their students pictures of people have these diseases and sometimes schools even bring in someone to talk about their experiences with drugs. As a result, students now are aware of the consequences of drugs to their health. My clinic will essentially use those same techniques to help poverty- stricken people preserve their
Throughout my three years at Barnegat High School I have strived to be a respectful, responsible and influential student and athlete. I have worked hard to stand out among my peers, be dedicated to everything I do, work towards achieving my personal goals and positively influence those around me. As an individual and a young adult, I believe it is the responsibility of younger generations to work towards being the best version of ourselves we can possibly be and positively contribute to others and our community. Overall, I aspire to be a well rounded individual and character that demonstrates the qualities of respect, citizenship, and responsibility.
As I walked into that small and musty room, in a dimly lit corner of an office building, I did not expect much. I was very reluctant to accept my first job as a 16-year-old in medical records at a multi-physician practice in my small hometown. Why couldn’t I have been hired at the restaurant down the street where all of my friends worked? As I began this all but glorious job scanning paperwork, filing patient records, and obtaining multiple paper cuts along the way, it turned into something very unexpected. I ended up loving the atmosphere of working in a medical practice, and I knew the medical field was something I wanted to explore further.
“What are you even doing here? I have never seen such flawed technique in all my years as a choreographer.” The words echoed throughout the medical college auditorium. Impelled by the admonishment in front of my peers, I persevered in my endeavor to improve upon my dancing prowess and by the final year of medical school was leading the college dance team. The above mentioned undertaking further spawned an interest for the discipline of Latin Ballroom which lead to participation at the national level. The unwavering focus and persistence even in the face of unfavorable odds is more broadly reflective of my approach towards learning, both academic and extracurricular. This has been instrumental in achieving stellar academic outcomes including being ranked nationally in the top 0.0004 percent in the premedical test and the top 0.6 percent in the common aptitude test for management training.
I have enjoyed my time as a middle school student at Natomas Charter School Performing and Fine Arts Academy, and that is why I am thrilled to continue to attend as a high schooler. I believe I have developed and shown many qualities throughout my years as a middle schooler that will make me an asset to the high school community at PFAA. I have gained qualities in multiple areas, including academics, citizenship, and performing arts. Academics have never come easy to me.
I believe that the medical profession is an important and valuable career field and it is very important to the society. I have been fascinated by the workings of life and the complexity of the human body ever since I was young and this has strengthen my philanthropic approach to life, in that I could be trained to help people get better. This, I consider rewarding. I have hoped to develop excellent skills, such as research, communication, teamwork and problem solving. I believe this program will give me the opportunity to further improve these skills and have great chances at professionalism.
advance healthcare for the underserved. As a physician, not only would I provide medical service
Throughout my life I’ve been a part of 4h where you’re constantly learning, teaching and growing. You are gaining knowledge by being tested, writing speeches and gaining communication skills. Being around livestock teaches you a lot of about being responsible, caring and respectful. The life I have with livestock and 4h has helped me fine my passion in teaching. The people I’ve met from showing livestock has impacted my life. I plan to have a positive impact on my student’s lives. Being a teacher you need to be responsible, caring and respectful. I am a caring, dependable and energetic person. Throughout life you are constantly learning. There are many ways to learn and many ways to teach. I plan to be an effective teacher while making school
Being involved in clubs throughout high school has taught me how to work with people coming from different backgrounds. One of my main goals in life is to create an organization for poor communities in order to teach them how to eat right with their own resources and motivate people to make the world better for everybody. I feel passionate every time that I help people, knowing that they feel healthy and happy is very important for me.
Since my unsuccessful attempt to gain entrance to medical school medical school I have taken upon myself to strengthen all aspects of myself that could have, in any way, been viewed as inadequate to the decision boards of medical school admissions offices. I started this quest by changing the location of my residence and enrolling myself in one of the most respected higher learning institutions in the nation, The George Washington University located in Washington, District of Columbia. Here I have been pursing my passion for medicine, in a preparatory capacity, studying Anatomical and Translational Sciences.
My fascination of both the biological and chemical elements of the human body has led to my aspiration of becoming a doctor. I have enjoyed the discovery of new elements in my AS syllabus, from learning about the cardiovascular system to the placebo effect in drug testing. Reading a book called Sick Notes by Tony Copperfield entails an account of his daily life in his profession as a General Practitioner. I was able to see how the science in the syllabus was used in the application of General Practice. Through my work experience I understood that the GP’s job was not just based on being a general specialist but also the lives of the people around him.
The Allied Health Academy is the perfect path for me to get an inside look at the medical field and prepare me well for college. While I aspire to become a surgeon, I want to be exposed to other professions in the field as well. I am very interested in the anatomy of the human body and desire to learn more about it. Insight into the many aspects of the field of medicine will give me a broad perspective of what my future could hold. My hope is that the experiences of the academy are steps in the right direction in achieving
To receive a more advanced knowledge and insight in biological and chemical processes that occur in the human body is why I chose to pursue a master’s degree in Graduate Medical Sciences. I have a lot to learn but I know that I can endure the intense workload that this program entails due to my educational background. I had the opportunity to receive a tour of the perks and the life of a student in this program. I found this program fascinating because it is very hands on in regards to dissecting cadavers and observing slices of the human body preserved in glass slates to just state a few.
My interest in the medical field dates back to my childhood, where I was intrigued by the combination of knowledge and passion. I spent many days in the hospital with my mother, often wandering the hallways while the nurses visited her. My mother was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, along with the discovery of polyps on her colon, which we would later find had a high chance of becoming cancerous. There was a vast number of medical personnel I would encounter over the next several years. I paid close attention to each one—their appearance, the questions they asked, and the equipment they used.
Academically, I have aspirations to pursue medicine and become a physician, with neurology as a key area of interest. Neurological diseases and disabilities are prevalent in society today, and I wish to be at the forefront of the future medical community to assist them and their families. I have personal experience with the toll neurological disabilities have on individuals and families. My little sister has neurological disabilities, and although she has undergone extensive and expensive testing, the exact etiology remains undiagnosed. The impact has been both financial and emotional to our family with constant worry for her future. In order to help others like my younger sister, I aim to explore options of practicing in either in a
True-born caring person, with an open heart, and a deep sensation of satisfaction after helping people. I was less than 10 years old when my mother used to call me “ the mother of the family” because I was already caring for my siblings, making myself available to those in need.
